Summary

Bimeda, Inc. is recalling 14,946 pouches of SpecLinx-50 and AGRIpharm Lincomycin S 50, which are water-soluble antibiotic powders used for chickens. These products were discovered to have high mold counts, which can compromise the safety and effectiveness of the medication. The affected items include 75-gram pouches distributed across 14 states. Because this is a veterinary medication, consumers should contact their veterinarian or pharmacist regarding any animals that have been treated with these lots and return any unused product for a refund.

Risk
